This is a spectacular viewpoint just east of Sonora Pass in the Sierra Nevada Range. At this time of day there was quite a range of light - an HDR image would have probably been in order to capture it all, but my camera's battery was running low so I opted to shoot just a single exposure, erring on the side of overexposing the sky so as not to underexpose the falls. I also wasn't using much zoom, so think of this as a reconaissance GigaPan, that hopefully I'll be able to improve upon in the future.

In fact, the most exciting part of shooting this GigaPan was discovering that the fellow geologist who spotted my license plate (OUTCROP) and stopped to chat was none other than Wes Hildreth.
